Going again

[Renard.E]

I will go and try again, I will take what they offer, no matter the unit, the rank, I want to be Legionnaire in the army of thousands men and serve well. My path will be exactly what they want to be. My flight to France will be on Monday morning, this time I will go direct to Aubagne.

At this point I want to thank everyone whom has helped me.

[Armakedon]

Good luck. Wish you the best.

 

[Nickfury]

Good luck. Did you fix your eye or are you just giving it another roll of the dice and hoping the doctors overlook it? Hope it's the former, but regardless, good luck and hope you can achieve your dream.

Because the first contract is 5 years and the reason to why people leave mainly is that 5 years is a long time away. Then you have those that, screw up any chances to promotion because they lack discipline and get's kicked out, others manage to rise in rank and leave at 5 years. Some re-enlist for 6 months, a year, or anything between, maximum up to 3 years (which is the legal length of a contract in the regular French army for the enlisted.) and depending on how they serve, will manage to re-enlist until retirement, which as from 2016, will be 17 years and 1/2. But don't you worry, if you are going to join the Legion and manage get past the selection, you will have plenty of time to figure out, it's easier to leave the Legion then join.

I thought you could re-enlist with another 5 year contract. In the US, they have 2 year, 4 year, and 5 year contracts I think.

If someone busts ass to gain entrance to a military organization that so few ever get into, why leave?

The Legion, has that particularity that the first contract is 5 years, after that, you can re-enlist 3 years or less, only some idiot in some office thought it was the thing to do and an order is an order. What the US have, is what the US have. Because, no one is forcing anyone to join the Legion, you get in (if you get in), you serve (better be in a favourable way). Want to leave after 5 years, or to serve more? The ball is in your camp. Simple, No B.S about college and such.
